I've been NBA slumping all week, so for whatever its worth...

This seems really a tough game for the Spurs considering it'll be their 7th straight road game and Ginobili is doubtful. Detroit has been a disapointment lately, but they're healthy, at home, and desperately need to get back on a winning streak to make a run at the playoffs. I think they'll give everything they have tonight. Suprisingly, they actually hold a few stat advantages over the Spurs namely rebounding and defense. With no points to cover, I'm on the Pistons.

whats everyone thinking on the O/U for the celtics/jazz game.....

Ok..... what's going on? The Pistons/Spurs spread is now 0. Dropped TWO full points in less then an hour? Really? Vegas knows something..?

Boston is now at 2.5 and both o/u's dropped .5

Interesting stats:

Boston OVER/UNDER away games: 8-19

3 of those overs were OT games.

Boston's SU record in those 8 OVER's.... 7-1.

With Boozer still out I would lean to the Celtics, but not huge because regardless of injuries, Jazz have one of the top homecourts in the League. Still, I would say that the Celts should be 5-6 points favorites here. Unless this goes to OT, def think the under is a solid play at 200.

sweet!!! midman....

Like the under 200 myself.

stats show that the o/u in tonight's game is going to be right at it. is the under the safe play here?

Taking home/road averages into account:
Combined Offensive ppg = 203
Combined ppg Allowed = 187

puts the game at ~195. Normally not a play for me but with only 2 games on the board I'll will be on the under.

Better value is the SAS OVER.
Combined Offensive ppg = 190
Combined ppg Allowed = 190

Puts the game at 190. 10 pt value on an Over puts this in a 67% category.

I like Detroit, the Detroti/SPurs under along with Boston and the Boston/Utah Over.
